I’m a Gross, Sweaty Hipster, and I’m a PC

World-famous DJ/mashup artist Girl Talk (a.k.a. Greg Gillis) has gone on record: he’s a PC, and his sweatband may not be totally ironic. His “I’m a PC” short features a lot of his philosophies on music, which aren’t so interesting, and his habit of taping Saran wrap to his computer during shows, which is sort of interesting. In between are shots of his live performances, which really are a ton of fun, and fleeting glimpses of sweaty yet colorful American Apparel.


I’m a huge, unabashed, and unembarrassed Girl Talk fan, yet even I’m not sure that, like he says, “Software and computers are the most punk rock thing that’s happened, ever.” I think punk rock might actually hold that crown. But hey, Night Ripper was the unofficial dance party soundtrack for my entire fourth year at college, so whatever you say, dude. [YouTube]

    Girl talk is the man.
    Listen to The Avalanches and say that mash-up isn’t credible
